Scuttlebutt - local San Diego company keeps sailors up to speed.

San Diego is blessed with a vibrant sailing scene. Just go walk around Shelter Island or better yet, get out in the bay once the wind picks up and you'll realize just how many sailors are in our city.

It makes sense that some local boaters put together an online news source to keep our community up to speed on Southern California sailing news. Scuttlebut was launched in 1997 as an e-newsletter with a focus on local sailing news. But that was a long time ago, since then Scuttlebutt has grown into a premier news source for national and international sailing events.

Captain Curran's 2018 review of solar powered generators

For the next year, I'll be sailing my Newport 30 along the Pacific coast of Mexico. The boat will often be on anchor and off the grid.

I want to maintain a reliable power supply, so I've been experimenting with various solar powered generators currently on the market in 2018. I just wrote up this review of quality solar panel generators. Hopefully the article helps other folks that are also thinking about a portable, back-up power supply.
